Frozen cakes

Disclosure: Katie received products for free from Cakes.com to review. The opinions in this review are honest and her own.

Do you wish you could craft creative cupcakes, cakes, and other baked goods for birthdays and family events? If you have been tempted to get creative with your baking skills, but really aren’t sure where to begin, Cakes.com may be a wonderful launching point. I recently had the chance to sample some products from Cakes.com in my own kitchen, and I must tell you that for a novice like me, the products made my job easier and the final product spectacular and brag worthy.

I have always been intrigued by cupcakes, and love many of the creative character styles I see. Cakes.com had a large variety of character themed cake supplies to choose from, including cupcake picks, edible cake transfers, cake toppers, and more. Since Frozen is such a popular theme in our home these days, I decided to give some of the  a try. I was not disappointed.

As you can see, I sampled the Frozen ring cupcake toppers, as well as the rotating Frozen themed cake topper. These products were made with quality, had bright colors, and were nice and light weight for my cakes. With our supplies, we turned a $1 box of cake mix and $1 canister of frosting into something Frozen inspired and so spectacular. We simply baked our cupcakes and mini cake, added some food coloring tinted frosting, sprinkled with the blue glitter topping, and set our ready to use rings and topper on top. For extra embellishment, the ready to use fondant sheets and mini cutters were perfect. I had always been curious about using fondant, and the ready to use sheets from Cakes.com make it so easy to experiment with. My nine year old daughter was able to easily cut out the shapes she wanted to create, and add them to the tops of our cakes. There is no rolling or dying involved as the fondant comes ready to cut. As you can see, all of the products from Cakes.com added the extra detail to the desserts that really made them look professional.

While we were at it, we also tried making some adorable gnome themed cupcakes. For these we used the same $1 box of cake mix and frosting. We baked our cupcakes, topped them with food color dyed frosting, and added the gnome cupcake picks. We then cut out some mini flowers using the mini cutters and ready to use fondant sheets. As you can see, they were really the perfect touch and add so much whimsy. These would be perfect for a garden party, children’s party, or anytime you just wanted to make cupcakes that were extra special.

  6. My 7-year-old is obessed with Frozen she has to have frozen from head to toe. My 7 year old has a Frozen hat that is a flippy hat where the tail filps out she loves it. A frozen shirt a different one for everyday of the week and if she could she would have more, she has socks and oh the list would go on and on. I am sure for her birthday in April she will want Frozen cupcakes. I love the look of the frozen icing it’s so pretty on a cupcake.

  8. Why have I never heard of cakes.com before? I just checked and they have several Thomas the Train cake toppers. I’m leaning towards Thomas for my boy’s next birthday. This is so great!

  24. I always wondered how people decorated their cakes/cupcakes – I thought they did it themselves by cutting it out with a knife. These sort of cookie-cuter devices make things so easy and look pretty.

  43. Frozen Frozen Frozen! If it has Elsa or Anna’s face on it, my daughter wants it. Frozen toys were “it: for her birthday and it’s the same for Christmas. Like a lot of girls, she’s completely enraptured by the music and the movie.
    These decorations would be a big hit with every little girl I know.
